Bye, bye, Alberta! We’re moving to Maui! Okay…maybe we couldn’t move to Maui on $50 000 but that’s what dreams are made of, right? We’d definitely go back and maybe stay for a whole month. (Excuse me while I daydream a little bit here…)

But in all seriousness…what would I do with $50 000? The responsible thing to do would be to pay off the remainder of our line of credit and then to finish the basement in our house. I’d definitely put a good chunk into the boys’ RESP account and also put away a little vacation fund to take the boys to Disneyland when Ethan is old enough – I cannot WAIT to go back to Disneyland with my own kids!

Jay and I love to travel and I’m so glad that we got to do quite a lot of travelling in the 2.5 years we were married before we had kids…which is one of the reasons why we wanted to wait. We spent 3 glorious weeks in Thailand right when we decided to start trying for a family. Our dream vacation is to go to Africa. We definitely don’t want to do this with our kids, so that will be our empty nest vacation I think!

Do you know what you’d do with $50 000? Well, you better start brainstorming, because thanks to Royale, one lucky Canadian will win $50 000 this summer to celebrate the Royale Golden Kittens 50th Anniversary! How do I get in on this, you ask? Well, I’m glad you did because I’m going to tell you!

Disclosure – I am participating in the Golden Kittens Blog Tour by Mom Central Canada on behalf of Royale. I received compensation as a thank you for participating and for sharing my honest opinion. The opinions on this blog are my own.

I'm a nurse who married a farmer and I'm a boy mom of 3 to Braden, Ethan and our newest Jonathan. I love blogging about family life, agriculture, recipes and embracing my role as farm wife and mom. I'm knee-deep in tractors, trains and trucks and I'm often seen with my camera in my hands catching life's moments.
